Validate Sudoku Board

"""
LeetCode 36. Valid Sudoku
https://leetcode.com/problems/valid-sudoku/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudoku

Determine if a 9 x 9 Sudoku board is valid. Only the filled cells need to be
validated according to the following rules:

- Each row must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.
- Each column must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.
- Each of the nine 3 x 3 sub-boxes of the grid must contain the digits 1-9
  without repetition.

Note:

A Sudoku board (partially filled) could be valid but is not necessarily
solvable.

Only the filled cells need to be validated according to the mentioned rules.
